RZA's production though, mad sequence of albums. There are three or four absolute stone cold classics from 36 Chambers to Wu Tang Forever. Can almost guarantee your favourite Wu album (solo or not) was produced by RZA.

GZA - Swordsman - YouTube


Raekwon - Knowledge God - YouTube


Ol Dirty Bastard - Hippa To Da Hoppa - YouTube
He just has this great, minimalist, dark, gritty sound to his beats that give them great atmosphere. As great as the rappers in Wu-Tang are, without RZA's production their work probably wouldn't be on the level that it is.
